It will come as no surprise to learn Cornelius and Jordan Carter (Unrelated) are graduates of the Hinds County Catch & Release program. The two men are charged with capital murder in the deaths of two sisters and a two-year old child that took place last weekend.
Jordan Carter
JPD arrested Carter in 2016 and charged him with armed carjacking, kidnapping, and aggravated assault. Then-Jackson Municipal Court Judge Gerald Mumford denied bond for Carter. Hinds County Court Judge Melvin Priester, Sr. reduced his bond (as he often did) to $100,000.
A Hinds County grand jury indicted Carter in 2017:
Carter pleaded guilty to the kidnapping charge in 2019. The other charges were remanded. Hinds County Circuit Judge Faye Peterson sentenced Carter to 20 years in prison but suspended 15 years of the sentence and gave credit for time served in jail. Squawk!
Cornelius Carter
Carter struck three JPD officers with his vehicle. A Hinds County grand jury indicted Carter in 2015 for aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer.
Carter pleaded guilty in 2021 to aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer. Hinds County Circuit Judge sentenced him to serve 10 years in prison but suspended 5 years of the sentence.
However, Carter could be a good boy while he was in jail. The grand jury indicted him for malicious mischief and escape in 2015. Judge Wooten remanded the case in 2021. Squawk!
Carter got caught with a cellphone in jail in 2017 and was indicted later that year. Carter pleaded guilty in 2017. Hinds County Circuit Judge Bill Gowan sentenced him to serve 2 years in prison but gave him credit for time serve and suspended the sentence. Squawk!

Dear gosh. This is the worst one yet. HOW does WLBT not report this?? This should anger every single person in Hinds County, and America for that matter.
Judicial terrorism.
Fire & stop paying these Judges for the blood on their hands!
Judicial incompetence-
>Hinds County Circuit Judge Faye Peterson sentenced Carter to 20 years in prison but suspended 15 years of the sentence and gave credit for time served in jail.
Might as well just say "Don't do it again" and not hand out a bullshit sentence.
But I'm sure it's not their faults, it's being let down by society. I mean, you have to be able to blame someone for your failures.
I am not advocating violence, but it seems these judges are long over due for some personal karma.
It seems like Hinds Conty is the only county in MS where this a way of judicial life- I guess the voters like it.
Of course the voters like it. They do it year after year because they are not able to connect cause and result.
I can't wait to see what Chief Brackney and Mayor Hohrn have to say about this latest development.
If anything.
Someone needs to investigate JPD's claim of an 80% solve rate. I just read about a group of moms in Jackson whose kids were murdered and only a couple of them have seen their child's killer convicted.
Can someone close to the Mayor send a link to this JJ article to him and let us know his response? My goodness.
They won't say s***.
Cornelius Carter had a previous appearance here as 'Cornelius Carter' for the jail escape recapture:

WLBT story on this escape: https://www.wlbt.com/story/28704213/inmates-escape-from-downtown-jail/
Move out if hinds county asap and never look back
Agree.
A convict's so called 'successful' completion of bullshit sentences like these for violent crimes is like a cheap participation trophy for the criminal (and the sentencing judge) rather than justice.
Crime is the Democrat tactic used to create the flight required to take over cities like Jackson.
Crime is the Democrat tactic used to maintain the flight required to keep out residents that won’t vote Democrat….in order to keep control of cities like Jackson.
White Democrats go along with this evil crime tactic resulting in the deaths of innocent children like the 2-year-old murdered in the most rent triple homicide….in exchange for votes in state and national elections.
How these white Democrats (like Bill Crawford and Yellow Dog Sid Salter) sleep at night while completely ignoring the tragic deaths of innocent children….because of these pro-crime catch & release Democrat tactics….is a no way to understand mystery.
And the white Democrats that refuse to live in these evil high crime Democrat controlled cities….but instead choose to live in the Republican controlled suburbs….must not have a soul.
@9:57 is on to something
Nothing will change until their culture changes. That’s not going to happen because they don’t think there is anything wrong with their culture. So instead we will get more handwringing and blather about crime prevention rather than law enforcement. Even a fool would understand that “crime prevention” is meaningless without enforcement, though.
"Then-Jackson Municipal Court Judge Gerald Mumford denied bond for Carter. Hinds County Court Judge Melvin Priester, Sr. reduced his bond..."
One would think it impossible to REDUCE a bond that was denied in the first place. How might that happen?
If only Dr. Chief would have a few "cocoa with the popo" events this mahem would stop. Right?
This tragedy probably eliminates the possibility of these two upstanding members of the Jokesan brain trust from curing cancer.
@10:36: Same old identity politics still dragging you down, buddy? Here, let me fix your post: "9:57 in on something".
Well diagnosed and quite accurate.
In summary:
Violence works....unless you are willing to extinguish the behavior through judicial enforcement or exerting more violence back. There is no other way.
9:57 white democrats that refuse to live in democrat controlled cities but instead choose to live in Republican suburbs must not have a soul? Or white democrats that choose to live in democrat controlled cities and refuse to live in Republicans suburbs must not have a soul? Either way this statement doesn’t make a bit of sense!
Jackson, MS / Hinds County where the first murder is free.
"Never let a crisis go to waste." This is engraved over the front door of the DNC HQ.
In an alternate history a few well placed and justified shots by JPD into a certain white Impala being used to try to kill 3 JPD officers years ago could possibly have saved some murders and taxpayer dollars in June of 2026.
Can't hardly imagine this accused murderer wasn't committing felonies all along, whether or not he was ever caught and charged.
12:28PM is fooling no one. White Democrats, as just one example, went along with the literal retard defund & abolish the police BLM scam, to appease their pro-criminal partners running cities like Jackson, while they themselves mostly live safely behind gates and/or in the Republican controlled suburbs.
Everyone with an IQ over 60 knew the BLM defund & abolish the police retard insanity would lead to higher crime rates, and the deaths of innocent children. But White Democrats don’t care, just as long as its poor black 2-year-olds being murdered, and not their privileged white babies living safely in the Republican controlled burbs.
Like Malcom X so correctly said, “that white person that you see calling himself a liberal (Democrat) is the most dangerous thing in the entire Western Hemisphere.”
They’ve been angels for the last few years.
@12:28PM You must not educate yourself on facts. It's white conservatives who don't care about any black person being shot. Time to pick up a book and watch something other than Fox "News."
